![Journey Beyond Group Looks Beyond 2022 and Releases 2023 Season!](https://www.travelweekly.com.au/wp-content/themes/bandtv1/img/default.png)
Journey Beyond group is here to bring Australia’s best travel experiences to life with their 13 iconic brands and experiences that operate across 60 destinations nationwide.
Journey Beyond has an extensive national footprint and is one of the largest experiential tourism businesses in the country. So it’s not at all surprising that their unique journeys and experiences are already heavily booked out for 2022.
But fear not! Because Journey Beyond is supporting you and your clients by releasing the 2023 travel seasons for all brands early this year!
The 2023 travel seasons are now available for bookings, and with a diverse range of products and experiences on offer across all brands, there truly is something for all ages and budgets. Plus, this season release encompasses some exciting updates to existing products.
Rail Expeditions
Guests can explore the wonders of Australia’s vast interior with one of the world’s most renowned rail journeys: The Ghan from Adelaide to Darwin (or vice versa). To meet the demand the 2023 season welcomes an extended season with double departures from April until September 2023 on The Ghan and Ghan Expedition. For those clients wanting to explore the Red Centre Journey Beyond have doubled the capacity for The Ghan’s ‘Ultimate Territory Tour’ and ‘Red Centre Spectacular’ holiday packages which include touring by Australia’s leading small group tour operator Outback Spirit.
A journey aboard the Indian Pacific will whisk guests between Perth, Adelaide and Sydney (or vice versa) in comfort and style. And in 2023, Journey Beyond is introducing extra-long trains to make sure no one misses out on this sought-after cross-continental journey.
Guests will have even longer to celebrate the Australian summer on a Great Southern journey from Adelaide to Brisbane (or vice versa), with the travel season extended into February 2023.
